I'm not sure that DLookup can be used in this manner. Why not concatenate
the fields in a query and do the DLookup on that?

I suppose you want to get the Company Name
together with their address.
If so try:
=DLookUp("[Company Name]","tblCompanyDetails") & " " & DLookUp("[Address
1]","tblCompanyDetails")

A DlookUp can only returen the value of 1 field.
Is the Company and Address your company, or is it one of many
companies?
If it is your comapnay name and address, then use:
=DLookUp("[CompanyName]","tblCompanyDetails") & chr(13) & chr(10) &
DLookUp ("[Address]","tblCompanyDetails")
Bell Company
123 Some Street
If you wish it all on one line then replace the chr(13) & chr(10) with
" " (see the next example below).
However, if the company is one of several companies in the table, you
need to use criteria to get the correct one.
=DLookUp("[CompanyName]","tblCompanyDetails","[CompanyID] = " &
someCriteria) & " " &
DLookUp("[Address]","tblCompanyDetails","[CompanyID] = " & Some
Criteria)

You're doing a Boolean expression there m8 :-)
Try
=DLookUp("[Company Name] & ' ' & [Address 1]","tblCompanyDetails")
If that don't work then try my replacement domain functions
( http://easyweb.easynet.co.uk/~trevor.../baslookup.zip) as
that'll have no problem with this syntax:
=tLookUp("[Company Name] & ' ' & [Address 1]","tblCompanyDetails")

I wouldn't know, I've never tried it in DLookup() that's why I
recommended tLookup(), which will work like that.

Build up the string just as you would in a query
DLookUp("[Company Name] & """ """ & [Address 1]","tblCompanyDetails")

Yes, indeed!
I tried something like "[ID]" & " " & "[Wibble]" and
Access is unable to read two fields this way.
I'd never suppose it could do it your way.
But it does!
Surprise in Access is a never-ending story.

Thats worked great, thanks for all your help.

Sorry is sent this direct to Nick J
Prehaps a Text box may be better
Try =DLookUp("[Company Name]" ,tblCompanyDetails") & " " & DLookUp(
"[Address 1]","tblCompanyDetails")
This assumes u have only 1 record in tblCompanyDetails or U want the first
Record in the current sort order
If U want on 2 lines then insert vbcrlf instead " "
